Online Gaming is a Great Way to Meet Women

Market research firm comScore has released a new report outlining how women are shaping the Internet, and yes folks, that includes gaming.

"Women's high engagement with Games and Online Gaming sites may come as a bit of a surprise," comScore writes. "However, this is indicative of the evolution of the gaming landscape, which has given rise to casual gaming -- an activity that is very popular among women. Women are much more likely to play casual games (i.e. Solitaire, Sudoku, and Scrabble) than action, adventure, and sports games, which are typically favored by young males."

According to comScore, female gamers age 55 and over spend the most time playing games online of any demographic, and other than the 15-24 age bracket, women outpaced men every time.

Casual gaming isn't the only online activity women are drawn towards. Females outpace males in social networking, instant messaging, and emailing. And would you have guessed that women are nearly as likely as men to visit gambling sites? It's true, says comScore, which also points out that over one-third of women visit sex-themed sites, compared to nearly half of all men.

I've been playing FreeCell for almost 20years on my computers and I've never met a single girl, not once while playing. No girl has ever showed any interest in me while I was playing FreeCell. I had to meet my wife the old fashioned way, I mailed away for her from Russia.

Not really, my wife and I went to school together 1st grade through 8th grade. We new each other really well when we got married. Just thought it would be funny to post what I did.

My 84 year old Grandmother-in-law was cursing up a storm when we came throught the door to visit. She was online playing a PopCap bejeweled game against someone online. And she beat her/him, gnarled fingers and all. What is the world coming to? LOL!

Now does anyone here want to "meet women" with my 84 year old Grandma? I can set you up!

Suck it up, buttercup. You guys whined when we autofiltered spam and it caught your posts. When we turned it off, we got lots of spam again. If you have something to add to the conversation, a little Captcha shouldn't stop you. Sorry it's inconvenient, but it's the least inconvenient way we've found.
